  • Yeah at some point you just say fuck it and limp along until the problem is big enough that it’s time for a completely new house or you move.

    In our situation it’s one of those things where it just doesn’t seem worth it to properly address because if we are gonna have an electrician cut a bunch of holes in our walls to redo all the wiring we may as well have a plumber cut a bunch of holes in our ceiling to insulate all the pipes they installed in the ceiling crawl space without any insulation. And if we have them cutting holes in every wall and every ceiling we may as we lost have them tear the whole goddamn house down and start over properly lol.






  • The first game has online servers that people host. Usually a blast. The occasional crybaby host. I have spent many nights just crashing into my buddy and trying to take each other out of each race.

    Sometimes we will just look for an empty server so we can mess around “alone”.

    I don’t believe it supports split screen and I haven’t tried LAN.

    The single player campaign of the first game took longer than I expected and was harder than I thought (if you care about getting 3 stars on all races). Some of this races you need a fast light car to win, but the challenges require you to take out a bunch of people meaning you have to do it really intelligently while not losing too much paceborndestroyijg your unarmored race car for example.

    Unless they really botch this game (kerbal 2 style) I think this second one will be even better than the first.



  • If this is basically battlefield 3 + I will happily spend the money and time playing a battlefield again.

    If this has any of the BS that made 2042 suck so much ass I will be skipping it.

    I miss having a solid battlefield game to play, but I’m not going to take any bullshit included. I don’t wanna see any fuckin wingsuits. No grapple hook Tarzan mother fuckers. No wall hack BS.

    I want 4 classes. I want team objectives. I want maps that look like shit by the time a match ends because everthing has been pretty much been leveled by explosives.



  • Some games lend themselves better to modding. Some are much more complicated to mod. Some games need a mod manager to do conflict checks and some games can just have mods piled on top of each other endlessly without issues.

    Mods within certain game engines can pretty much be moved between games ofln the same engine often with very little adjustment.

    I would say in modern modding it is usually fairly straightforward, but some games and some older mods definitely require some deep computer fuckery.

    Stick to things you’re comfortable with and skip the ones you aren’t.






  • They can’t.

    I tried to make a comment about this in a different thread. Only you can control how you wanna spend your energy every day. Stop giving it to being angry at them all day. Unless there is something you can do to take actual action its just ruining your day with no real change taking place.

    My father has requested that the family only talk to him about politics if there is something he can do. A petition to sign. A protest to mount. Something. Otherwise he doesn’t want to hear what Trump and his lackey’s are up to because he knows he can’t do anything about it and letting it ruin his daily mental health does him no good.
